London, Feb 27 (IANS) Fashion designer Rachel Zoe wants people to wear more splashes of colour when they grace this year's Academy Awards ceremony.
The 44-year-old designer believes fashion choices are becoming a bit too mundane these days and she would love to see people think outside the box with their frocks when they attend the glamorous ceremony, to be held in Hollywood this weekend.
"I'm sick of seeing a straight column dress, I would love to see more colour like when Julianne Moore does that great emerald green moment, something like that I think is just wow. We always love (what) Cate Blanchett (wears at the event as well)," people.com quoted Zoe as saying.
While Zoe is known for styling various celebrities including Jennifer Lawrence in a custom-made Dior gown at the Oscars three years ago, she is too busy to help out with fashion choices at this year's event as she has just opened her first stand-alone shop in Los Angeles.
"I feel like it was really time to just put the collection out there the way I want it to be out there and really create an environment where people can come in, enjoy shopping, feel really comfortable, walk into a clean and airy space and just enjoy the shopping experience, she said.
